    I want to create a custom icon to enter a numeric value.
    For example, I want to draw a line 6" long.
    Command: line
    start point,
    next point, (here I would click on my icon labeled "6" instead of 6 from the keyboard.)
    I have tried this thru customization for toolbars, but for the macro is there a way to use LISP or visual basic?
    Thanks

    Something like this?
    (command ".line" (getpoint "\nStart point") (strcat "@" (getstring
    "\nDistance") "<" (getstring "\nAngle")) "")

    I think you're trying to make a simple thing difficult. What would be the
    application for this?
